EXPLANATION OF PLATE 43 (XLIII) 



Figs. 1-4, X 25; Figs. 5-8, X 20; Figs. 9, ll,X30;Fig. 10, X18; 

 Figs. 12, 17, 19, X 25; Figs. 13-16, 18, X 40. 

 Figures 1-3. — Textularia agglutinans d'Orbigny. 



Fig. 1. Challenger Sta. 135, Tristan d'Acunha, Atlantic. (100-150 fathoms) 

 Fig. 2. Challenger Sta. 33), off Bermuda, Atlantic. (435 fathoms) 

 Fig. 3. Off the Shetlands, North Atlantic. (70-100 fathoms) 

 Figure 4. — Textularia porrccta Brady. 



Challenger Sta. 185, Torres Strait, Pacific. (155 fathoms) 



Referred by Brady to Textularia agglutinans var. porrecta Brady, and by Egger (Abhandl. kon. bay. Akad. 

 Wiss. Munchen, CI. II, Vol. 18, p. 269) and later workers to Textularia porrecta Brady. 

 Figures 5-8. — Planctostoma luculenta (Brady). 



Figs. 5, 7. Challenger Sta. 23, West Indies. (450 fathoms) 

 Figs. 6, 8. Challenger Sta. 24, West Indies. (390 fathoms) 

 Referred by Brady to Textularia, and by Loeblich and Tappan (Smith. Misc. Coll., Vol. 128, No. 5, 1955, 

 p. 8) to Planctostoma as the genotype. 

 Figures 9, 10. — Textularia pseudogramen Chapman and Parr. 



Fig. 9. Challenger Sta. 162, Bass Strait, Pacific. (38-40 fathoms) 

 Fig. 10. Challenger Sta. 260A, Honolulu reefs. Pacific. (40 fathoms) 

 Referred by Brady to Textularia gramen d'Orbigny, and by Chapman and Parr (Sci. Repts. Australasian 

 Antarctic Exped., 1911-1914, Vol. 1, 1937, p. 153) to Textularia pseudogramen. 

 Figure 11. — Siphotextularia sp. nov. 



Challenger Sta. 33, off Bermuda, Atlantic. (435 fathoms) 

 Referred by Brady to Textularia concava (Karrer). This species, as figured by Brady, shows the aperture of a 

 Siphotextularia, and from a study of available literature appears to be new. 5. concava (Karrer) is figured by 

 Brady on Plate XLII and is a very different form. 

 Figure 12. — Cribrogoesella bradyi Cushman. 



Challenger Sta. 24, West Indies. (390 fathoms) 

 Referred by Brady to Textularia agglutinans d'Orbigny, a deformed specimen. Cushman (Smith. Misc. 

 Coll., Vol. 91, No. 21, 1935, p. 4) referred this figure to Cribrogoesella bradyi. 

 Figures 13, 14. — Textularia conica d'Orbigny. 



Fig. 13. Challenger Sta. 172, Friendly Islands, Pacific. (18 fathoms) 

 Fig. 14. Challenger Sta. 185, Torres Strait, Pacific. (155 fathoms) 

 Figures 15, 16, 18. — Textularia sp. nov. 



Figs. 15, 18. Challenger Sta. 188, New Guinea, Pacific. (28 fathoms) 

 Referred by Brady to Textularia trochus d'Orbigny. This is one of the species figured by Brady which has 

 been inextricably confused by later workers. Cushman first attributed these figures to T. pseudotrochus Cush- 

 man. (U.S.N.M. Bull. 104, Pt. 2, 1922, p. 21), a species from shallow reef conditions off the S.E. coast of the 

 United States and Florida. His figures do not appear to show the same species as Brady. In 1937 (C.L.F.R. 

 Spec. Publ. No. 8, p. 66) he referred them to another West Indian species, Textulariella barrettii (Jones and 

 Parker) with T. pseudotrochus in synonymy. Lalicker and McCulloch in 1940 (Southern California Univ. Publ., 

 Allan Hancock Pacific Exped., Vol. 6, No. 2, p. 136, pi. 15 fig. 17) refer Brady's figures 15-19 to Textularia 

 orbica with no reference to Cushman's T. pseudotrochus or his placing of this in the synonymy of Textulariella 

 barrettii. Their figures are again different from those of Brady and from those of Cushman and furthermore 

 Brady's fig. 17 represents the West Indian T. barrettii and is from a West Indian locality. They also point out 

 that T. trochus d'Orbigny is a Marssonella and therefore not congeneric with the form figured by Brady. Refer- 

 ence to the literature has failed to reveal any form identical with Brady's figures 15, 16 and 18 and it is believed 

 to be new. 

 Figure 17. — Textulariella barrettii (Jones and Parker). 

 Challenger Sta. 24, West Indies. (390 fathoms) 

 Referred by Brady to Textularia trochus d'Orbigny (see above) and by Cushman (U.S.N.M. Bull. 71, Pt. 

 2, 1911, p. 15) to T. goesii Cushman, from the Hawaiian Islands. Original material from Challenger Sta. 24 

 contains large numbers of Textulariella barrettii (Jones and Parker) in various stages of growth, some of which 

 are identical with this figure. Brady mentions the labyrinthic nature of his "Textularia trochus'' and figures 

 a section of an Atlantic specimen on Plate XLIV fig. 3 which is certainly T. barrettii. Textularia goesii Cushman 

 is regarded as entirely distinct, most probably the form figured by Brady on Plate XLIV figs. 1, 2.
